00:00We'll see you next time.
00:30We'll see you next time.
01:00A few games into the league.
01:04The Edition 10.
01:04Islamabad United winning all three games.
01:06Sitting comfortable on top.
01:08It is the middle of the table.
01:09A clash.
01:10Quetta, Gladiators and Karachi King both tied on points.
01:13They get into it.
01:15Both coming off a loss from the similar side as well.
01:17Lahore Kalandas who sit pretty at two.
01:21And teams arrived.
01:22Let's have a look at the home side.
01:24Their dressing room.
01:25New coach, captain.
01:27New looking kit as well.
01:29One win, one loss is their track record coming into the side.
01:32Coming into this game.
01:34And they will hope that the Kings can turn it around.
01:37And they can turn it around against an opposition that did not enjoy a record against.
01:44And the Quetta Gladiators have had the better of the Karachi Kings as they make their way first time here in Karachi.
01:50The toss went in favor of David Warner, the captain of the Karachi Kings, who was elected to have a bat first.
02:00For changes, desperate measures.
02:04We'll have to wait and see because David Warner will be hoping that he can go in and get among the runs.
02:10In comes Muhammad Nabi, Ahmed Jamal, Mir Hamza and Muhammad Riazola.
02:15The youngster, the emerging, who's been very successful in that under-19 Asia Cup especially.
02:22Well, the Quetta Gladiators, yeah, they've got three changes as well.
02:26So, quite a few changes in this game.
02:28Certainly, looking at the surface, what do they need?
02:31What are the resources that they need?
02:34Abar is certainly the man they're going to turn to with the ball in hand.
02:39So, he's going to be an exciting prospect in this match.
02:45Five seconds away from the start of the game here.
03:03Muhammad Amir with the ball.
03:04One slip.
03:05Ringer fielders both on the offside and next side.
03:08He does have deep backwards square on the boundary.
03:11Paul Rifle says play.
03:12He flicked his off his pads and flicks it away for four.
03:30Karachi Kings batters in Tim Seifert up and running with the boundary.
03:33Tim Seifert, he's been in decent touch of late.
03:36And he pounces that opportunity for the first boundary of the innings.
03:44Tim Seifert gets the better of him.
03:46Picks it up, picks it over mid-wicket.
03:48Ends the over with the boundary.
03:54Through the offside.
03:55Just opens it up slightly.
03:57David Warner picks up four.
03:58A very well-crafted boundary.
04:04A juicy full toss.
04:06And gets the treatment.
04:08All too easy.
04:09Ali Majid struggling slightly.
04:11A little bit of a punch off the back foot.
04:24Fielder in pursuit.
04:26And eventually trickles into the fence.
04:29And Sean Abbott with the chase.
04:31And Muhammad Amir disappointed.
04:32Up and over.
04:38Up and over the bowler.
04:39The best place to go.
04:41It was full and it was hit back with power.
04:44Allows the arms to come through.
04:46Great execution.
04:51Smacks it.
04:52And smacks it through the offside.
04:54He will also pick up back-to-back boundaries.
04:5750 partnership.
04:58Just in the 31 deliveries.
04:59Over the top.
05:06And that's gone for four.
05:07That's a lovely shot.
05:08Great connection from Seiferts.
05:10He's unleashing now.
05:12Absolutely.
05:12What a brilliant start backer Archie Kings.
05:14Without any risk whatsoever.
05:1655 for none.
05:19See how much he changed this game.
05:20Now he's dragged leg side.
05:22That's a terrific shot as well.
05:24So there are two wonderful strokes
05:26right at the start of the spell.
05:28Here's the second one.
05:29Picked up the quicker one.
05:32Towards Carl Koaner.
05:35And Tim is in great form.
05:37Catch up in the air.
05:38And yes.
05:39They've got the breakthrough.
05:40The danger man.
05:41Very much of the fielder.
05:43At short square leg.
05:46Very annoyed David Warner.
05:48He was watching Seifert play.
05:49Absolutely brilliantly.
05:52And this one took a little bit of extra time to get to him.
05:56High on the bat.
05:59Comfortably taken.
06:01Warner goes for 31.
06:0360 for one.
06:03Bowled him.
06:07Just enough.
06:08That is special.
06:10That is a wonderful delivery.
06:12Just gone past that outside it is.
06:13And it's hit that off stump hard.
06:15Beautifully bowled.
06:16The first ball.
06:20Just straight.
06:21Turned up.
06:22Maybe a hint of turn.
06:23He played it inside.
06:25A little turn.
06:26Off stump gone.
06:27Classic bowling.
06:29From South Shaquille.
06:31Birerachi now.
06:3262 for two.
06:35Bowled him.
06:36Had to do something.
06:37Deference.
06:38That is a big wicket.
06:40Stare down as well.
06:41They are doing beautifully now.
06:43The Gladiators.
06:45Butterflies.
06:46Under pressure.
06:47Missed the straighter one.
06:48Bowled cleverly.
06:49Bowled quicker.
06:50Off stump gone.
06:52He exposed his stumps obviously.
06:55Ali Majid gets his first wicket.
06:56Riazullah departs for six.
06:59Karachi now 79 for three.
07:04Boundary is drying up.
07:06So James Wins decides to change it.
07:09Decides to take the bowler on.
07:11And hits him for a great six.
07:12Over long on.
07:14James Wins he certainly comes to the party for the KFC power hit.
07:20Oh he's bowled him.
07:22You saw it in the previous over as well.
07:25Trying to use the pace.
07:27A big wicket is well in the context of the game.
07:30Khushdil Shah has been in really good form with the bat.
07:34He follows him as he gives himself room.
07:36And it's been chopped on off the front leg.
07:39Khushdil Shah goes for one.
07:40Karachi now four down for 91.
07:42Yeah a great shot.
07:47Great shot gets the length.
07:50Does James Vince.
07:51And it's the first boundary.
07:55And 23 balls.
07:56What a strike.
08:03What a magnificent strike that is from Irfan Khan Niazi.
08:07Applauded by the dugout and the crowd both.
08:09Here's this moment of the change of momentum for Karachi Kings.
08:15He persists at that wider length does for him.
08:18Certainly James Vince couldn't get it off to the boundary.
08:20But on this occasion Niazi.
08:21He goes for a maximum.
08:28Adjust away.
08:29Adjust away from Riley Rousseau.
08:32Diving to his right.
08:33Niazi over in a boundary.
08:35A big one.
08:35Niazi on strike at the moment.
08:39Pick that one up.
08:40It's crunched that straight to the fielder.
08:44Finn Allen's the catcher.
08:46You jinx them.
08:48Mike Heisman.
08:49They were going so smoothly.
08:51Last over was.
08:52He wanted to go more straighter.
08:55Bottom hand comes into play.
08:56And easy catch.
08:57Comfortable catch.
08:59By Finn out of mid-on.
09:02Niazi gone for 17.
09:03It's 1-2-5 for 5.
09:05A little bit of width.
09:11It's nicely played.
09:12Need a boundary on the over and they've got it.
09:14That's a really good shot.
09:16Much needed boundary for Karachi Kings.
09:18A man in form.
09:20James Vince.
09:22Short delivery.
09:23Waited for that.
09:24He's got that away as well.
09:25Comfortably.
09:26Easily.
09:27Four runs.
09:28Back-to-back boundaries.
09:30A change of field now.
09:32Mid-off is up in the circle.
09:33Fine leg gone back.
09:36Pulled.
09:37In the gap.
09:38And that's his 50 as well.
09:40James Vince.
09:41That's his fifth 15 HPL PSL to go with the century just in the first game.
09:49Yeah, this is a top knock.
09:50I thought his century is magnificent.
09:51This has been a really important knock at exactly the right time.
09:5436 balls.
09:58Slice that away.
10:00He'll be thinking in his mind, I can't give a boundary away.
10:03Well, he's just done that now with ball number four on the over.
10:06A little bit of width.
10:07Got the treatment.
10:12Opening the blade.
10:14Squeezing it.
10:15Brilliant.
10:16Now they've got some runs at the end.
10:1813 off the over.
10:19162 for five.
10:21Mohamed Amir gives some width.
10:26And the length is wrong.
10:27It's been peppered for six.
10:29That's a wonderful shot and a great start of the over for Karachi.
10:32Oh, he's cracked that.
10:42That's gone.
10:43That's disappeared.
10:44That's two in a row.
10:45That's outstanding stuff.
10:49Mohamed Amir is having terrible time.
10:51So much good work in the middle overs.
10:54It's going waste now.
10:58It's gone again.
11:00How far has it gone?
11:02Oh, it's a very, very good catch.
11:05Finn Allen.
11:07Outstanding work from him.
11:09Great awareness.
11:12This catch is taken inside the field of play.
11:16Roll further.
11:17Roll further.
11:18Yeah, he threw the ball in the air.
11:19Went outside.
11:21Yeah, came back in.
11:22And taken it fairly.
11:24I'm ready to make my decision for the big screen.
11:27Brilliant stuff.
11:30Nice to watch that.
11:33Navi gone for 18.
11:341, 7, 4, for 6.
11:37Last ball.
11:40Short it is.
11:41Top edge.
11:42Might be out.
11:43Should be out.
11:44And is out.
11:47So that's quite amazing in the end.
11:492-6s at the first 2 deliveries.
11:51And then only 1 run.
11:54In the last 4.
11:56For just 2 wickets as well.
11:58175 for 7 is where they finish the Karachi Kings.
12:03I think you're right.
12:03That change will be happy.
12:05A very teasing kind of total.
12:07175.
12:08They had patches where they played really well.
12:10They started off really well.
12:12Wins stayed out there.
12:13And they finished really well.
12:1418 from Navi of 12.
12:16Deliveries towards 2-6s.
12:17I think might make a difference.
12:19If we look at the bowlers.
12:21Amir, 2 for 42.
12:23Ali Mujid, 2 for 39.
12:24Really good work from him.
12:25Abbott.
12:26Good stuff.
12:26He had a bowler.
12:27Tough time as well.
12:28Abra was impressive, particularly at the top.
12:31And such a kill.
12:323 overs.
12:331 for 20.
12:33Terrific delivery to get rid of Tim Seifert.
12:36Fahim got some treatment.
12:39We're going to have a good game, I'm sure.
12:41A really good game in match number 8.
12:43The Quetta Gladiators need 176 runs.
12:46They've got to go at 8.8 runs and over.
12:48We know the starts are so important.
12:50This is certainly going to be worth watching this one.
12:52That's for sure.
13:01I'm being joined by Artur Ali Khan and Vakar Yunis with that first ball.
13:05Of the Gladiators innings.
13:19Beautiful shot.
13:21Didn't try to over hit it.
13:22Just a pure timing.
13:24And made sure that he shows the full face of the bat.
13:29Yeah, it's just a touch full.
13:31A little bit too full in the slot.
13:33Beautifully played.
13:36Down the ground.
13:37Such a lovely shot to watch.
13:43Again, full of chance here.
13:45Chance here.
13:45Oh, second attempt gone.
13:48Mormon Nabi takes the catch.
13:50You're going to see the back of Alan.
13:52Third man was brought in after that.
13:57And this was a third variation from Mir Hamza.
14:01First one came in, went for six.
14:03Other one swung away.
14:04Third one, a slow delivery.
14:06He's using all his experience.
14:09That's why I was saying it.
14:11This is going to be a real good matchup.
14:14And Hamza comes on top.
14:15Finn Allen gone for six.
14:17Big wicket gone now.
14:19Eight for one.
14:20Hassan Ali from the University road end with his first over.
14:25It's taken.
14:26It's taken.
14:27Khushnil Shah takes the catch.
14:30What a way to start an over.
14:32What a way.
14:33Karachi Kings grabbing two in the power play.
14:35He's a left-hander.
14:37Who is still Shah.
14:39But it is always hard.
14:41Very tough.
14:42Very difficult.
14:43To go to your left when there is a wicket keeper there.
14:47He kept his eyes on the ball.
14:49Beautiful delivery.
14:50Hassan Ali keeping his form going.
14:52Had to dive onto his left.
14:54Two gone now.
14:55Nawaz come and go on for one.
14:58Nine for two.
14:59Driven.
15:05Beautiful shot from the captain's bat.
15:13In where they had to.
15:15Boundary here.
15:16Room there from Hassan Ali.
15:18And Mandus took the invitation and played it over the top for four.
15:23Doesn't time it as well.
15:30But this outfield is so quick.
15:32They've given up.
15:33Yes.
15:35Two overs gone.
15:3623-4-2.
15:44And the attack.
15:45And it works.
15:46Meet the ball early.
15:48And get rid of the swing that's coming in.
15:51Yeah, he tried to kill that swing, whatever he was there, by just using his feet and making
16:00sure that the ball doesn't get enough time to move off the surface and then dealing it
16:05beautifully.
16:10Straight into the hands.
16:12Hassan is doing no wrong today.
16:16He's been wonderful with the ball, picking a wicket early.
16:19Yeah, what about Mohamed Nabi?
16:23Short delivery, he could have hit it anywhere he wanted to when he finds the fielder.
16:27Hushal Mendes gone for 12.
16:30Koyta in the spot of water.
16:3234 for three.
16:37That's going.
16:38That's gone.
16:40That's catching practice straight to the man at third.
16:43Hassan gets his second.
16:44Koyta is four down.
16:47That's again not a good shot.
16:49Rising delivery.
16:50It was again smart balling from Hassan Ali, bold, nice and full few deliveries and then
16:56testing a youngster who likes to play hook shot and a pull shot.
17:01But this time he decided he's going to just play that ramp shot, but played it straight
17:07to the man.
17:0736 for four, young Nafi gone for one.
17:12Rousseau is a very fine player.
17:13Big hitter when he gets going.
17:15Oh, he's got a bit of a top edge on that one.
17:17Is he in trouble?
17:18He is in trouble.
17:19It's a great catch.
17:20And it's a superb catch.
17:23Yeah, you felt that this was coming from Raleigh Rousseau.
17:26Doesn't necessarily take too many balls to get in.
17:29Likes to get on with it.
17:30And I spoke about how Mohamed loves a left-hander and opportunity was given and taken beautifully
17:40in the outfield.
17:41And the power play, they've lost their fifth wicket for 37.
17:49It's gone high on him and it's out.
17:52Couldn't control that.
17:53Abbas in the attack.
17:56And he's picked up a wicket in his first over.
17:58Amir Jamal again.
18:00And persisting with the shorter deliveries, doesn't quite get hold of it.
18:07Not a comfortable catch in the end.
18:10It's been a good fielding performance from Karachi as well.
18:13They lose their six for 47.
18:16Ashraf, he goes for three.
18:20Oh, it's kept a little bit low and it's gone through Seifert's legs as well.
18:25There was some way away from the off-stamp, so there's some bonus runs.
18:27And we spoke earlier about boundaries needed for Quetta.
18:32It doesn't matter how they come.
18:34Good Yorker, good Yorker.
18:40Oh, he's giving it.
18:41It's bat first.
18:43What does the batter feel?
18:44He wants to go upstairs.
18:45Well, unless he's got some bat on it, I think it's pretty adjacent.
18:50Origin DC on out.
18:58Pitching out and off.
19:00Impact in line.
19:01Wicket's umpire's call.
19:02Stay with your Origin DC and Tariq.
19:04Stand by.
19:05Well, the umpire's call stands.
19:10It is out.
19:11Back leg, clipping leg.
19:13That's the way to give it.
19:1457 for seven.
19:16Quetta Gladiators.
19:18Tense moments out there.
19:20Sean Abbott goes for three.
19:21Down on one knee, and he'll probably get a boundary.
19:28Yes, he does.
19:29One bounce.
19:31Vishnishai into his fourth over.
19:33He's only conceded.
19:3516.
19:35Now make it 22.
19:37Because that's gone into the crowd.
19:39Beautiful hit.
19:40Use of the feet.
19:41Got to the pitch.
19:42And then played his favorite shot.
19:44That slug sweep.
19:45This might be, this might be out, this might be inside, might be.
19:54No, just clearing the boundary for six.
19:57Expensive over.
19:5918 off it.
20:0085 for seven.
20:05Arsenal.
20:06Short delivery.
20:07Top heads.
20:07That's going to run away pretty smartly for a boundary.
20:09Good way to start the over.
20:15Backing away.
20:17Give us awesome room.
20:19And he slapped that one over the top for six.
20:22Good connection.
20:23Nicely played.
20:26And that also brings up 100 for Quetta Gladiators.
20:30Amir is on the 20, 30 of just 15 delivered.
20:34Strike.
20:35Good of 200 with three sixes and two fours.
20:39That was his third six.
20:40Gave himself room.
20:42And that's where exactly he wanted him to bowl.
20:45Oh, that's bowled him.
20:50Too far across this time.
20:52Hit that leg stump hard.
20:54He's happy to do that.
20:56That's for sure.
20:57Amir Jamal.
20:58Tried his best.
20:59Looked good for a while.
21:02Slow ball.
21:04Exposed the stumps.
21:05Leg stump gone.
21:06Cleverly bowled.
21:08Got his first wicket.
21:09Jamal.
21:10Amir to pass for 30.
21:11100 for eight quetta.
21:15Oh, it's bottom edge.
21:16Gone past the keeper.
21:18And that's raced away for a boundary.
21:20107 for eight.
21:27Bowled him.
21:28He's got himself another wicket.
21:29He said he was going to get three to Aaron in the build-up today.
21:32He's now got his three.
21:33And knocked the pole out of the ground.
21:36Absolutely.
21:37Isaac got the cake because he was imitating Ibrard's celebration after getting him out.
21:44Didn't pick it up.
21:45Leg stump gone.
21:47Would love to see his celebration in slow motion.
21:50Here we go.
21:51Let's have a look.
21:52They called him.
21:53Ibrard goes for five.
21:58Quetta struggling big time.
22:00110 for nine.
22:09He's got that way for a boundary.
22:12Split the gap perfectly.
22:16We've got one ball left in the game.
22:17Digs it out.
22:22No run.
22:23And David Warner's going to be pleased.
22:25The Karachi Kings have bounced back nicely.
22:27They needed to.
22:27They were well outplayed in the previous game.
22:30This is exactly what they wanted to do at home.
22:31They've got two more home games to go.
22:33They've got to play well with those as well.
22:35Because you've got to get a base going at home.
22:37But this has been comprehensive.
22:39Big win for Karachi Kings.
22:41For this tournament.
22:43And of course, for the upcoming games.
22:47Let's have a look at the cards for the Gladiators.
22:52Sounds like a good one.
22:52About 33 of 40.
22:55And he carried his bat.
22:58First player to carry his bat.
23:00And that's the old PSL history.
23:02Mir Hamza, four overs, 31 for one.
23:04Nabi bowled beautifully.
23:06Two for seven in his four.
23:08Khoshnil, four overs, 28.
23:10Abbas, two for nine.
23:12Bowled really well.
23:14And of course, one wicket to Jamal.
23:15And pick of the ballers.
23:16Hassan Ali, four overs, 27 runs and three wickets.
23:20And there's a look back at the match summary.
23:22Match number eight.
23:23Karachi Kings winning the toss.
23:24Selecting to bat first.
23:26And they got off to a pretty good power play.
23:2860 for one at the end in the six overs.
23:32Got to 175 for seven.
23:34They did lose four for 31, which set them back a little bit.
23:37But a good recovery towards the end.
23:39It's a good total as well.
23:40And the Gladiators, 119 for nine.
23:43Hassan Ali, three for 27.
23:44Nabi up.
23:45Brilliant.
23:45Two for seven.
23:46Abbas, two for nine.
23:47He did his job as well.
23:49But there's a couple of batsmen in particular.
23:50Vince can be very pleased with the work that he's done.
23:54And I think also the talking behind the scenes from the Karachi Kings
23:57to make sure they've got a good start in this game today.
24:00Right.
24:01The points table is Lombard United.
24:02Six points.
24:03Very good net run rate.
24:05North Islanders, four points.
24:06There's one and two.
24:08Their net run rate is a shade over the two mark.
24:10Karachi Kings have now got four points.
24:12So they've jumped up one.
24:13They've gone to three.
24:15And the net run rate is fine.
24:17Absolutely fine.
24:17It's improved considerably, actually, from what it did before the day's play.
24:21And Karachi's Gladiators have dropped to number four.
24:23Their net run rate is disappointing.
